The best way to hide spoilers is to reduce the size to the lowest possible.

I see other boards on the web (phpBB?) use Spoiler tags, which creates a dark block with black text. To reveal what's hidden, a person would have to highlight the text.

Yeah, I've seen that too. But is that a feature on these forums?

Nope. But maybe you could highlight at the same color as the text! Let's see...

It looks like it works! Grin From now on, this is what you can do! (Glow and Font Color of the same color)

I will head over, pick it up, kill all the K-A with Fwiffo and rule the universe forever.

Once you're more experienced with fighting and space exploration, you can play the game again with this as a viable career choice.

I have lots of SC1 experience, so I know how to fight... now if I can find one...  Grin

I also plan on finishing my original game, now that I know I can still get the bomb.

It's a good to know your alternatives, make your time, and wipe your mouth with the American flag. Why? Two words: Pre-cursor Terra-effable Bombs. Okay?!
The Umgah, Thraddash, Orz - they can have all the *celebration* they want. They can have a big *Celebration* cake-walk right through the middle of the Galactic Core and it won't make a lick of difference because we've got the bombs, okay?!

Thanks for the Dennis Leary reference!  Cheesy  I also have whale-skin crew pods and baby seal heads for shiva furnaces.  I drive through hyperspace with one antimatter thruster, sucking down fuel units and throwing non-spacedegratable refuge out the hatch.

It works on Firefox (and possibly other browsers), as glow is actually highlight in this/these browser(s).
But it doesn't work on IE (and possibly other browsers), as glow is actually glow in this/these browser(s).

It's not meant to glow, it's just the background-color property. IE breaks the rules, and SMF cooperates. Undecided It works fine on all the other major browsers (Opera, Safari and Firefox). I wonder if they fixed it in IE8.

Correct me if i am wrong on this , but there is no "permission" as such for spoilers posting . However , spoiler , as implied by name , can spoil someones experience on the game , wich will really be a shame .

Frankly, I'm not surprised at IE not being standards compatible. This is why I use Firefox.
Did you mean IE7, or did I miss something and IE8 is actually out?

What are you talking about?

This error message I got when I tried to post a message with a spoiler tag:

Sorry - you don't have the proper permissions to post spoilers.

Maybe you have the so-called "permissions" that it's talking about, then I understand why you don't know what I'm talking about. But I get this error message when I try to post spoilers.

It's in beta, and it's much more standards compliant than older versions.

Right next to the quote button. The tag is:
Code:
